Development of Self-Regulation
Initial Behavior Strategies
Motor actions
Sensory-motor strategies
Development of Self-Regulation
Final level- Metacognitive Strategies
Internalizing a dialog
Reflect on cognitive processes that support
organization, decrease anxiety, modulate
attention and arousal
Recognize anothers perspective and social
conventions
Support/guidance (verbal techniques, sensitivity,
expectations) from caregivers is key in
development of these strategies -The SCERTS Model, Prizant et al.
Milestones of Self-Regulation
By 2 years of age:
Children are able to delay actions when requested
by caregivers
Begin to behave according to caregivers or social
expectations without external motivators
By 3 years of age:
Express emotions- a hallmark of co-regulation
